Name two phases of metabolism

Two phases of metabolism are anabolism and catabolism.

  • The sum of the physical and chemical processes by which living organized substance is built up and maintained (anabolism).
  • Large molecules are broken down into smaller molecules to make energy available to the organism (catabolism).

 

Essentially these processes are concerned with the disposition of the nutrients absorbed into the blood following digestion.
